I am curious though, if you don't mind me asking... If you look at the design on whole, all of the contextual evidence supports the idea that Plan B refers to the alternate plan. There's nothing really feminine about the design, and nothing that would imply it's about contraceptive methods. Is it the title that leads your eyes to Plan B first, and then the rest of the design? Is it the red that makes you look at the Plan B first?

Just wondering for future reference.

It's the PlanB in red I saw first with the sad face that made me think the morning after pill. I like the rest of the design; but then again I'm one of those who does like a lot of the clip art, wings, girly stuff that's so frowned upon by some here.

I also still consider a "chaser" to be a drink which follows another drink, or possibly one who chases. Were there a shirt which said "Straight, no chaser", I would not presume it to mean "I'm not ebullient, and don't take hangover pills". But again, clearly I'm alone on that.

I don't think "Plan B" is something new. A "chaser" is a drink to follow another, and I don't see penises, swastikas or other such things in those designs you mentioned.

Guess I'm the only naive soul here who totally missed the Plan B morning after connection. I NEVER thought of that in reference to this design. I simply saw....Plan A: Live the American Dream. Oops...failed, move on to Plan B. The sad face meaning that he/she failed at first and now has to take the next best option.

I'm a peach. I say funny little things to funny little people that have a hard time taking what they dish out. You and a good number of goons round here have a hard time keeping track of what you say to people. Smile and the world smiles back, spryte! 8-)

Perhaps I would, but my real world skills, such as grammar and ability to research another language in order to adequately translate into it, are far more important to me than the success of my designs.

I was tempted to keep those colors, but it really made the 'wreath of words' look like a Christmas wreath and I didn't want that effect. Thank you for your vote! Glad you were finally able to find the derby entries. Once you're off the shirt.woot main page, it can be tough to find the entries.

Your effort has been rewarded by getting a dozen gold stars next to your name in my Book Of Awesome. I really appreciate it. The Book Of Awesome has hundreds of pages left to be filled, people! Keep voting!

(And to the two other people that voted for my other design, could you please just shift them to this one? I need to consolidate my votes. Thanks.)

And here I was thinking the point was to win, not who had the biggest encyclopedia. They say size doesn't matter, but thats coming from people sporting the Britannica ;)

I don't think I'm the one holding the pissing contest. I attacked the design. You attacked me.

And the point of the derby is to win. The point of life is far more nuanced. Though seeing as how I never seem to see your name pop up unless it's ridiculing someone for disliking a RobGlenn design, I don't know if you're particularly concerned about nuances.

For one so astute and in tune with nuances, you think I'm talking about pissing contests. If the point of the contest is to win, then it is NOT who is better at [insert 'anything but winning design contests' here] in 'real life'.

I heart robglenn. I also heart haters like yourself.

Where there is someone with a snarky, uncalled for quip with nothing but rhetoric to back it up, you'll find me. I'm kind of like a super hero, if super heroes got pleasure from talking with design trolls on Saturday nights. And were very handsome. Handsome like me.

I cited a very specific reason why the design was weak at best. You have done nothing but cite reasons why you think you're better than me. Your definition of troll could use refining.

Get relevant. What is it about a nothing-special hot topic graphic with poorly translated Latin that makes it worth your defense?
